Tough decisions to make, that's for sure.
If it some of it might be anxiety related, maybe her doctor would rx something to help with that part of it.
She may be having some sort of pain and not able to verbalize it.
Do caregivers think her clothes might be chafing or too tight?

Does she have any close friends nearby, or does she not socialize anymore?
I would help me to make a list of ideas and options for the future, and talk it over with her , is she able to reason things out still or not?
I don't know if moving her closer to you is an option or not?


One of my aunts got kind of like that in her later years, then one day just went to her final sleep. I had visited her earlier the day that she passed, but she was sleeping/dozing the whole time , but I talked to her anyway.

My grandmother got total Alzheimer's in her later years , her live in caregivers could not handle all care in her home at some point. So family did move her to a nursing home for her final years. She did not even know how to feed herself or remember anyone at all. But she was very easy going and cooperative.
